Product code: EDMT14528
Product Description
Roll the cubes before, during and after reading a story to encourage comprehension skills. Each side asks a question, such as ';what do the pictures on the cover tell you about the story?' and ';What is the main idea of the story?'
- Encourage children to discuss their reading with these dice which add an element of surprise about what the topic for discussion might be.
- Model good discussion during Guided Reading sessions, and then let the children use them independently to discuss their own reading.
- These cubes would work well for groups of children reading the same book, or during a library session where the children are swapping books and want to tell someone about the book they have just read.
- Comprehension skills develop through pupils' experience of high-quality discussion with the teacher, as well as from reading and discussing a range of stories, poems and non-fiction.
- All pupils must be encouraged to read widely across both fiction and non-fiction to develop their knowledge of themselves and the world in which they live, to establish an appreciation and love of reading, and to gain knowledge across the curriculum.
- Reading widely and often increases pupils' vocabulary because they encounter words they would rarely hear or use in everyday speech.
